They specify in the study that the participants were "non-expert poetry readers." I'd be interested to see the same experiment repeated with English professors, or even just English majors. Folks with a lot of experience reading poetry. With exposure to its history, its notable works, and its different styles.

Good luck finding people willing to deal with English majors long enough to conduct the study.

This. Marvel superhero movies are also more popular with the general public than art films, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're better.

You can get whatever result you want if you're able to define what "better" means.
